When I did try ./configure I got a bunch of errors one which I traced back to CPAN::XML::Parser
I have ran the CPAN installer and everything goes according to plan until an error saying make not available, so I run make at the cli and sure enough it doesn't exist. I search my HDD and find imake, but no make, so I goto the advanced package manager in ubuntu and install make.
I find the Configure.pm module and adjust the path accordingly, run install XML::Parser from cpan> again and this time I don't get a make error...so it continues a little further
Then AGAIN it chokes, this time saying something along the lines:
Code: Select all
/bin/sh: cc: command not foundCode: Select all
/bin/bash/bash, I assume is similar to command.com on DOS and has built in commands, one of the being CC (C Compiler?) which I found weird for a shell, but this is open source linux I suppose
I've searched high and dry and cannot find anything about what command Bash makes available...but I can find a thread which suggests I replace the CC references with GCC instead, and I know for a fact I have GCC installed as I just ran past it in my Ubuntu package manager.
Edit: I just tried gcc at the cli and got an error, so I guess the binary isn't availble???
Now my questions:
1) How can I find all occurances of cc and replace them with gcc using grep? How I find the makefile is probably more important
2) I imagine I can easily figure out how to install gcc, but while I'm here, why doesn't someone give me a heads up
Cheers
